DSA Steel U.S. Charging Handle Review

[PBR]

This is the DSA U.S. made FAL charging handle. It is made from steel not aluminum like some of the others I have seen. It fits tight in the slot on my Entreprise receiver. Although a bit pricey at $50 it is well made and adds to your U.S. parts count. The finish it a lot darker that it looks in the photos.

That looks very well made!

For now I will be using my original charging handle with an inexpensive TAPCO plastic handle. It was only $2, I figure I can always upgrade later on...

Looks good. I opted to use an FSE folding Metric charging handle. It's not authentic to Metric FAL's but I sure like the look of how trim the rifles are without the big charging handle sticking out there like the originals had. Oh BTW, it also is all steel construction. Price, $49 bucks, I got mine from RPB.

I have a folder on my L1A1 and like Schuetzenman says, I like the way it removes one more place to snag your clothes on. I need a USA charging handle for one of my upcoming builds but not sure which way I will go.

The folders are pretty slick but I like to keep things as close to OEM as I can.

I saw the RPB Metric Folders and they were real nice though.
